About the Provider

Description: The mission of Forest Hills Montessori School is to provide both creative and stimulating intellectual, artistic, and developmental experiences for children ages 3-12. We strive to cultivate each child's natural desire to learn and to foster his/her natural curiosity and love of knowledge. We are committed to providing a rigorous, classical education that focuses on scholastic achievement. Emphasis is placed on core skills in reading, writing, and mathematics, using a broad repertoire of teaching techniques and technologies. These skills are enhanced by their integration throughout the curriculum. Our faculty creates experiences that foster critical thinking, problem solving, and collaboration. Our educational philosophy is centered on intellectual, physical, and artistic development. Forest Hills Montessori School's size and low student-teacher ratio enable our exceptional faculty to maximize individual attention. Our nurturing, family-oriented environment brings out the joy of learning in each child.
